I think someone said this is the 4/4 variety correct?

I would agree with G even though the AG and G look like they have been swapped on the PCGS website.

Worn down rim some stars blend into it. The date is clear but weak at the bottom.
Just my opinion but I stand by AG3

I do agree with the 4 recut over 4. O-110.

It appears on the PCGS Photograde that the AG-3 and G-4 are swapped but they both appear to have some blending along the rims. Normally on most coins that means AG but I think age comes into play as well. Of course some coins just have weird wear making them a little different to grade and netting down sometimes come to play. Without the date issue I would say G-06. I also have a seated coin with wear that is a little weird.

You do understand grading is somewhat subjective....right? If you want to call it G6 then by all means call it G6.

What you have is a beautiful Bust Half regardless of grade.

The wear is a little weird but after looking at the PCGS Photograde and reading the grading specifications in the RedBook, I would agree with the G-04 although I still think the pictures were swapped for AG and G on the PCGS Photograde for this coin.

Your right, it is subject. I think it is a nice coin at a good price. I bought it for $33 with free shipping (well the seller forgot to send it so I they refunded shipping). It is a Christmas present to myself.

$33 sounds like a good price for a nice CBH that is nearly 190 years young!

Weak G-4 at best but still a nicely worn coin! Nice buy!
